Ports
On the rear of the monitor there are four ports for specific cable connection.
The first small port is for the flywheel sensor cable (labelled Sensor Port)
The second small port is for the Polar Heart Rate receiver.(labelled HR Port)
The USB port is for connecting the monitor to a computer.
The Network port is for connecting to other Oartec monitors (not currently configured).
Batteries
The Oartec Workout Monitor uses 4 AA standard batteries and access to the battery compartment
is by sliding open the battery cover located at the rear of the monitor beneath the Ports.
Troubleshooting
Issue: Monitor not giving any scores. Reading zeros when rowing.
1. Check the sensor is plugged in and in the correct port.
2. Check pulses procedure. If no pulses continue with steps 3 & 4.
3. Check for damage to the cable.
4. Contact your local Oartec agent for further advice or replacement cable.
Issue: Monitor not turning on
.
1. Replace batteries.
2. If the batteries have been replaced with new and in date batteries and still does not turn on contact your local
Oartec agent for further advice or replacement monitor.
Issue: Monitor gives irregular speed and ratings.
1. Check pulses procedure. If there is a regular pulse at low speed check again at a progressively higher flywheel
speed. Listen for consistency of beeps as the speed of the flywheel increases.
2. If there are inconsistent beeps it means that the sensor is not detecting the 3 magnets per revolution and therefore
producing some irregular scores and ratings.
3. If this is the problem you identify please contact your local Oartec agent for further advice.
Check Pulses Procedure
1. Turn monitor ON.
2. Press the ARROW UP button. The small interval digits should appear in the centre bottom field of the display.
3. Press the ARROW UP until the digit reads 01, then press READY. The top right corner field should then show a
number digit only.
4. Lightly pull the handle to get the flywheel moving. The flywheel contains 3 evenly spaced magnets and as each
magnet passes over the monitor sensor, there should be a beep. ie. 3 beeps per revolution.
5. Try moving the flywheel faster and listen for an even and consistent beep pattern.
6. If hearing an irregular pattern of beeps or missing beeps please contact your local Oartec agent for further advice.
